Austin City Council member Vanessa Fuentes is set to return to work next week, balancing chemotherapy and new motherhood after being diagnosed with Stage Two breast cancer late in her pregnancy. She delivered her daughter Vivienne safely on May 5th and began treatment just 36 hours later — a testament to her resilience and the power of early detection. Fuentes urges others to trust their instincts and seek medical care when something feels off. Supported by her team, family, and community, she’s determined to keep serving her city, saying her diagnosis has only deepened her resolve, not shaken her identity.
